Two weeks after announcing a partnership with French online media company Webedia, France’s largest soccer club Paris Saint-Germain is diving further into eSports with the creation of PSG eSports.

Led by Bora “YellowStar” Kim, the newly-appointed Head of eSports, PSG will enter teams in League of Legends, the world’s most popular eSports video game, along with soccer franchise FIFA.

A European star in League of Legends, Kim will supervise the future of the PSG LoL team in the European Challenger Series, the second LoL division in Europe. Eventually, the franchise would like to enter the top division, the European Champions Series. Kim will also oversee the FIFA players, too.
